Charlie has written for various platforms and publications including Conker Magazine, Bird Table, The Guardian and Bald Hiker.

Review :
"It reads as the instructions for a nature prescription, something the world needs more of". --Nick Baker - naturalist and television presenter (The Really Wild Show) ''Moving, informative, funning, evocative. Charlie's book will take you on a wonderful journey through the world of birds and the stories of those that live alongside them. Through her stories, you will be inspired to embark on your own journey and make a deeper connection with the natural world around you. An utter delight from start to finish." --Miranda Krestovnikoff; Broadcaster, RSPB Vice President, Author "From the first page, I was immersed in Charlie's world, feeling her joy, amazement, sorrow, surprise, and humour through these deeply honest stories. This book offers a perfect invitation for anyone who thinks nature isn't 'for them' to discover a bird story of their own. Charlie's writing is vibrant, relatable, and brimming with wit--a true celebration of the life-affirming magic of birds." --Ajay Tegala - Wildlife TV Presenter
